Fangio left to become the Broncos’ head coach last week and they landed an experienced hand in Chuck Pagano.General Manager Ryan Pace said on Monday that Pagano “checks all the boxes” for what the team was looking for in its top defensive coach Kyle Long Jerseys 2019 , although head coach Matt Nagy said that there will be a feeling out process as everyone gets comfortable with the new arrangement.“We’re going to start building our relationship day-by-day just like Vic and I did,” Nagy said, via the . “He’ll have to gain trust, and I鈥檒l have to gain trust back and forth with each other. I feel like be a pretty seamless transition.”That transition will be made easier by the talent on hand on the Bears defense. Linebacker Khalil Mack, defensive lineman Akiem Hicks, cornerback Kyle Fuller, safety Eddie Jackson and others give Pagano plenty of reasons to avoid making major changes to what worked well when Fangio was in the job. One week White Pat O’Donnell Jerseys , one win for Packers interim head coach Joe Philbin.Now, the self-effacing, self-deprecating Philbin wants to keep the momentum going from Sunday's win over the Atlanta Falcons to keep alive Green Bay's slim playoff hopes. At the least, there are positive vibes in the locker room as the Packers begin preparing for NFC North-leading Chicago next week.Philbin and many of his players watched the Bears defense throttle the Los Angeles Rams' juggernaut offense during a 15-6 victory on Sunday night. He said that carrying forward the renewed energy while playing for a new coach that was evident from the 34-20 victory over the Falcons will be a challenge going forward."I imagine a lot of those guys were watching the game. Intelligent men that they are, (they know) we're going to have to play an awfully good football game on Sunday at noon in Chicago," Philbin said Monday.It has been a week since the offensive coordinator replaced the fired Mike McCarthy.Philbin said that he doesn't plan to install his own tweaks to the team's schedule. The Packers have kept a relatively similar preparation routine.That steady approach was a hit with Philbin's players, most of whom had not been on the team during his previous stint in Green Bay (2003-2011).There were rave reviews from many players Pat O’Donnell Jerseys 2019 , including quarterback Aaron Rodgers, one of the few holdovers from Philbin's first tour; and receiver Davante Adams, who hadn't played for Philbin before he returned this year as coordinator."Everybody just bought in. You could feel it around the locker room, you can feel it in plays. Everybody bought in to what Joe has given us," said cornerback Bashaud Breeland, who signed with the team midseason and barely knew Philbin before he became the interim coach.Breeland returned an interception 22 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter to give the Packers a 17-7 lead, a turning point early in the game."He took control the first day he stepped in. It was a glorious moment for him to step in and get this win White Sam Acho Jerseys ," Breeland said.Philbin didn't get off to a smooth start on Sunday.He challenged back-to-back sideline catches by Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones in the span of 19 seconds early in the game, losing both reviews. It left him without a replay challenge for the final 57 minutes of the game.Philbin was still convinced on Monday that the first call should have been overturned. But he said that he shouldn't have thrown the challenge flag on the second."I did establish an NFL record, myself, yesterday," Philbin deadpanned. "That's forever in the books."Kidding aside, Rodgers, who has been close with Philbin since his rookie season of 2005 Sam Acho Jerseys 2019 , praised Philbin for his even-handed approach during a tumultuous week."He was in a tough situation this week with the change and trying to get the right messages across to get guys motivated at a time where (the team was 4-7-1) and most people expect us to maybe throw in the towel," Rodgers said."And guys didn't. Guys responded. I'm proud of them ... but Joe deserves a lot of credit for the vision he set forth this week."Now, it's back to work, with the daunting challenge of the Bears (9-4) up next as the Packers try to get their first victory on the road after an 0-6 start."We haven't had the type of success on the road that we need to have as a football team," Philbin said "That's really all we're focused on right now."

FOXBOROUGH Isaac Rochell Jerseys 2019 , Mass. (AP) — milestones he sets.But even he had to chuckle at the one he and Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers will mark when they meet in Sunday’s divisional playoffs.Brady, who will be 41 years and 163 days old, and Rivers, at 37 years and 36 days old, will combine to be the oldest pair of quarterbacks to face each other in an NFL playoff game, breaking the mark Brady held with Peyton Manning.“Nice,” Brady said of the impending footnote. “Nice and old.”Sunday will be just the fourth playoff meeting between the teams, with the Patriots holding a 2-1 edge.Rivers enters Sunday with a 1-7 record against the Patriots, including 0-4 in games in Foxborough and 0-2 in the playoffs. Rivers earned his lone victory against New England during the 2008 regular season, when the Chargers were still in San Diego. Brady was sidelined for that game by a knee injury and Matt Cassel started in his place.Brady is 7-0 as a starter against Rivers .The Patriots (11-5), who captured their 10th straight AFC East title this season, will be seeking their eighth consecutive trip to the AFC title game.The Chargers (13-4) haven’t even been to the conference title game since losing 21-12 to the Patriots during the 2007 season.Rivers played in that game just days removed from tearing the ACL in his right knee. He limped his way through it while being intercepted twice and failing to throw a touchdown pass.It’s become the toughness brand for a quarterback that hasn’t missed a game since becoming the Chargers starter in 2006.Rivers, who led his team to five wins in its last six regular-season games and a road win at Baltimore in the wild-card round last week White Darius Philon Jerseys , said he’s tried to keep past shortcomings against New England out of his mind this week.“It’s not something you think about a whole lot,” he said. “It exists and it’s there but again, and I mean this, I don’t feel that I’m playing Tom. Certainly, it’s a Tom Brady-led team and we know how things work with the quarterback and the head coach that have the record attached to it. We’ve got a heck of a challenge.”It will also be a chance to earn a signature win for second-year Chargers coach Anthony Lynn, who has steered Los Angeles through its relocation and a season that included a game in London.To have another chance at this stage of his career to notch a playoff win against a New England team that has been the standard in the conference is an opportunity not lost on Rivers.“Fired up to have a shot,” Rivers said.Here are some things to watch for in Sunday’s game:ROAD WARRIORSOne thing that gives the Chargers confidence heading into Foxborough is their record away from Los Angeles this season.The Chargers are facing a Patriots team that is 8-0 in Gillette Stadium this season. But Los Angeles is 8-1 on the road , with its lone blemish coming against the crosstown Los Angeles Rams.“We have a tough football team, no doubt. I believe that. I think going on the road, it really doesn’t faze this team,” Lynn said.“We love ball, we like playing football, we like competing and we know going into Foxborough Darius Philon Jerseys 2019 , they’re undefeated there and they’re tough to beat, period. It doesn’t matter where you play the Patriots; they’re tough to beat.”TOUGH STREAKIn addition to earning his first postseason win over New England, Rivers will also be trying to help the Chargers end their recent struggles in the divisional round.Each of the Chargers’ past three trips to the playoffs have ended in this round — 24-17 to Denver in 2013, 17-14 to the New York Jets in 2009 and 35-24 to Pittsburgh in 2008.GORDON’S A GOChargers running back Melvin Gordon is expected to be active Sunday, despite missing the first practice of the week to rest the knee injury he sustained in their wild-card win over the Ravens. He was limited for Thursday’s workout, but removed from the injury report on Friday.Los Angeles’ offense is at its best when Gordon can take the pressure off Rivers. He had an 87-yard touchdown in last year’s regular-season meeting with the Patriots. He also has 12 touchdowns in the Chargers’ past nine games on the road, including playoffs.WEATHER FACTORThe forecast for Sunday in Foxborough is 29 degrees, which recently has been a good thing for the Patriots.They are 13-0 at home since 2011 in games in which the temperature was 32 degrees or colder .The Chargers contemplated staying on the East Coast after last week’s game in Baltimore, but ultimately decided to return to California to practice.Patriots coach Bill Belichick isn’t counting on the weather being that much of an advantage, though.“They’re a good football team. We’re playing the Chargers. We’re not playing the weather,” he said. “Whatever it is, it is.” This week the Chargers are back home for the first time in 41 days as they host their divisional rivals, the Denver Broncos White Austin Ekeler Jerseys , for the first time this season.Winners of six-straight games, the Bolts will hope to extend their streak to seven against the reeling Broncos who have found themselves stumbling through 2018 on their way to a lackluster 3-6 record.QB Case Keenum has not been who the Broncos thought they were getting from the author of the Minneapolis MIracle and with Demaryius Thomas now with the Houston Texans, the Denver offense rests squarely on the backs WR Emmanuel Sanders several rookies, including RBs Phillip Lindsay, Royce Freeman, and WR Courtland Sutton.The defense has some fresh faces, as well, intertwined with their usual star-players to create an interesting mix of proven-talent and potential. The last time the Chargers played the Broncos at StubHub Center, the Broncos were shutout for the first time in over 25 years. The Chargers left that game winners of a 21-0 shellacking which helped erase the poor taste from their loss to Vance Joseph and Co. during week 1 earlier last season.Regardless of the past, divisional games within the AFC West are always a toss-up. The Broncos may be better than their record suggests but 3-6 is still 3-6. Is this a trap game? Potentially. They did stay close with the Kansas City Chiefs in both of their games, losing by five and seven points, respectively.Whatever comes Sunday is sure to be exciting. It’s at home, the navy-on-navy uniforms will be donned Austin Ekeler Jerseys 2019 , and Joey Bosa may even play a little bit.What’s not to be stoked about?1.) How will OTs Russell Okung and Sam Tevi handle one of the deadliest pass-rushing duos in the NFL?OLBs Von Miller and Bradley Chubb have combined to record 17 sacks over the first half of the season. In fact, Miller and Chubb are the only two members of the Denver defense that have collected more than two sacks on the season, creating their own monopoly on the stat.As a unit, the Chargers have only allowed 13 sacks the entire season. However, in their last match-up against the Broncos, they allowed Miller to sack Rivers twice. Last year, the Broncos also did not have a usable bookend opposite Miller.Enter Chubb who, through the first eight weeks of the season, recorded 32 pressures which ranks him second all-time on PFF’s list (2006-Present) just behind Chandler Jones in 2012. His total also eclipsed Joey Bosa’s 26 from his rookie season in 2016.2.) A match-up consisting of...two UDFA running backs that both wear #30 and played their college football in Colorado?The Chargers’ Austin Ekeler was an undrafted free agent out of Division II Western State prior to the 2017 season. Denver’s Philip Lindsay was signed as a UDFA out of the University of Colorado, straight out of the backyard of the Broncos.Both have been as productive as they’ve been efficient in their young NFL careers.After a hot start to begin the season, Ekeler’s production has cooled off a bit to make way for Melvin Gordon’s streak of five games with 12-+ scrimmage yards and a touchdown. On th year, Ekeler has 59 carries for 345 rushing yards. He also has 20 catches for 246 yards and three receiving scores.Lindsay wasted no time in finding significant playing time alongside third-round draft pick Royce Freeman out of Oregon. Linday has amassed 110 carries for 591 yards and three rushing touchdowns. He has also added 20 catches for 160 yards and another score.As Lindsay’s average carries per game doubles that of Ekeler (12 to 6), this unfortunately won’t be a game where you will be able to watch the two duel. However White Tyrod Taylor Jerseys , it will still be a neat site watching a pair of undrafted running backs make an impact on their teams success, especially in a divisional match-up.3.) The No Fly-Zone is actually open for businessTwo to three years ago, the Denver defense was a unit no one wanted to face in the NFL. The secondary was about as scary as it got with the likes of Aqib Talib, Chris Harris, TJ Ward, and Bradley Roby.In 2018, Harris and Roby are the only members of that vaunted group as they’re now joined by younger players in safeties Justin Simmons and Darian Stewart.This year, the Broncos’ secondary is a bit more vulnerable. The defense has allowed twice as many passing touchdowns than they have scores on the ground (16 to . They’ve also allowed at least 19 points in every game so far except one. With the Chargers’ 28 offensive touchdowns coming in the form of a 21:7 split, the strengths of the Chargers should be on full display against this new Denver defense.

NASHVILLE Shareef Miller Jersey Color Rush , Tenn. (AP) —His creation, the NFL draft, has become an industry unto itself and the league’s third-most popular annual event behind the Super Bowl and opening weekend.Bell owned the Philadelphia Eagles in 1933 and was hot to sign Stanley “King Kong” Kostka of the Minnesota Gophers. All collegians were free agents back then — college football was far more popular than the pros — and Bell saw the bruising fullback/linebacker as a building block for his team.But Kostka signed with the Brooklyn Dodgers; yes, that was a football franchise back then. Never mind that Kostka lasted one season in the NFL. Bell had a calling.“I made up my mind that this league would never survive unless we had some system whereby each team had an even chance to bid for talent against each other,” he later told The Associated Press.With some negotiating and arm-twisting — Bell was so good at that he soon would become NFL commissioner — he persuaded owners of the other eight clubs to try a draft. The team with the league’s worst record would pick first and the rest would go in reverse order of their success in the standings.On Feb 8-9, 1936, in a Philadelphia hotel owned by the Bell family, the draft was born. And guess who had the first selection: the 2-9 Eagles.That they took halfback Jay Berwanger, the first Heisman Trophy winner, who played at Chicago University — yes, that was a college team back then — and couldn’t sign him was somewhat embarrassing; Berwanger chose to go into the “real world” where he could earn more money than the Eagles were offering.Regardless, the draft was established, with nine rounds, increased to 10 the next year and to 20 in 1939, with this oddity in 1938 and ’39: only the five teams with the worst winning percentage in the previous season made selections in the second and fourth rounds.The number of rounds fluctuated through the years, in part because of competition from the All-America Football Conference in the 1940s, but also because college football grew and more players were available. For a span of a dozen drafts, there even was a bonus pick to start proceedings, with one team each year getting until every team had gotten one.When the AFL began in 1960 and soon started pirating NFL players and hiding college seniors, the NFL moved its draft up from the spring. Cloak-and-dagger stories developed, as soon-to-be Pro Football Hall of Famer Gil Brandt told Ken Rappoport and me for the book “On The Clock, The Story of the NFL Draft.”“Our battle for players with the AFL featured the so-called baby sitters who would hide players so the other league couldn’t find them Cheap Shareef Miller Jersey ,” said Brandt, who scouted the colleges for the Dallas Cowboys for three decades, drafting the likes of Roger Staubach, Bob Lilly and Tony Dorsett, and now is the lead draft consultant to the NFL. “There was a group of people, ex-coaches, ex-players, even the governor of Oregon, who were involved.”The merger led to a common draft, but the grab bag for talent wasn’t a big deal whether staged in Philly, New York, Washington, Pittsburgh, Milwaukee, Los Angeles or Chicago. Then television stepped up.This brand new TV entity called ESPN approached NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle in 1980 offering to broadcast the proceedings from the New York Sheraton. Rozelle couldn’t fathom why ESPN boss Chet Simmons made the offer.“Pete thought Chet was out of his mind,” said former ESPN vice president John Wildhack. “But Pete said, ‘Let’s try it.'”Desperate for programming, ESPN hired Bill Fitts, who had worked games on CBS and NBC, as producer of the draft show, which Fitts admitted in “On The Clock” was rudimentary.“I would say at the beginning it was like with our golf coverage — we started covering one hole,” Fitts said with a laugh. “Look what it went to.”It would not be an exaggeration to say the draft has exploded beyond the selection meeting tag the league hung on it. And don’t underestimate the credit TV deserves Shareef Miller Philadelphia Eagles Jerseys , first with ESPN’s gavel-to-gavel coverage and then with NFL Network joining in since 2006. Plus a move to prime time for Thursday’s first round in 2010, and to the early evening for Rounds two and three on Friday.Would Mel Kiper Jr., Todd McShay and Mike Mayock have become household names to draftniks? Would there even be draftniks? Would mock drafts begin appearing as soon as college underclassmen declared for the pros in January; in 1990, the NFL began allowing collegians whose class had been in school for three years to apply for the draft.Just as television has been a powerful force in the popularization of pro football, it has been irreplaceable in the universalizing of the draft.When the league moved the proceedings to Radio City Music Hall, where it held nine drafts, it also turned the fans loose in the art-deco landmark. That meant several thousand folks dressed in jerseys from all 32 teams howling and screaming — and often booing — the selections.That made for great TV, naturally. And it gave the draft an entertainment element it never had, with red carpets to follow.Those fans would follow the draft when the NFL turned it into a road show. In 2014, Radio City, owned by Madison Square Garden, had scheduled a spring spectacular for the usual draft dates in late April. The league had to move the draft back into May, only to see the Radio City show switched to 2015.Annoyed by the Garden’s machinations, and intrigued by the possibilities of moving around its biggest offseason event, the NFL abandoned the Big Apple for the Windy City. After two highly successful years in Chicago in which the league used iconic local settings and fan festivals to boost the draft’s profile and the size of the crowds, it headed to Philadelphia — the original site back in Bert Bell’s days.There, using the Philadelphia Museum of Art, with the “Rocky” statue and all, as a backdrop, the NFL saw an astounding 250,000 attend over three days.“Philadelphia is raising the bar,” Commissioner Roger Goodell said.Last year Philadelphia Eagles Jerseys Stitched , a stadium was the site for the first time, at Jerry’s Palace near Dallas. And now, we head to Music City, alongside the honky tonks on Broadway.Next year, Las Vegas.What would Bert Bell think? Welcome to SB Nation FanPulse, a survey of fans across the NFL powered by SurveyMonkey. Each week, we send 32 polls to 100+ plugged in fans from each team. Eagles fans, sign up HERE to join FanPulse.Let’s take stock of the NFC East heading into NFL Week 10 based on SB Nation’s latest FanPulse numbers.Week 10 NFC East FanPulse OverviewTeamWeek 9 ConfidenceWeek 10 ConfidenceChangeRecordTeamWeek 9 ConfidenceWeek 10 ConfidenceChangeRecordWASHINGTONWashington saw a huge drop in fan confidence following their 38-14 home loss to the Atlanta Falcons. It wasn’t just the loss that has Washington fans feeling bad, of course. It’s also the fact they lost both of their starting guards and their top wide receiver for the rest of the season.Despite this confidence loss, Hogs Haven readers are still projecting Washington to win on the road against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers by an average of three points. Bucs fans, meanwhile, are expecting their team to lose by an average of one point. If Washington loses on Sunday, they’ll be 5-4. Philadelphia will then have a chance to move into first place in the NFC East with a win over Dallas. The Eagles would own the tie-breaker over Washington due to record in common games (4-2 over 3-3). PHILADELPHIA EAGLESThe reigning Super Bowl champions saw a slight increase in fan confidence coming out of the bye week. It’s hard not to feel more optimistic about the Eagles after seeing both Washington and Dallas falter. Not to mention that Philadelphia’s offense could be improved with the addition of Golden Tate.The Eagles MUST capitalize on a golden opportunity to advance to 5-4 and effectively end the Cowboys’ season in the process on Sunday Night Football. It’s an absolutely critical game to win.Eagles fans are feeling VERY confident going into this specific matchup. FanPulse results show that Eagles fans expect their favorite team to win by an average of 10 points. Division games can be closer than expected, yes, but I don’t think you can take a blowout off the table. Eagles fans expected a close game against the Giants earlier this season and Philly blew the doors off New York.DALLAS COWBOYSThe Cowboys’ fan confidence only dropped by four percent heading into Week 10. It’s worth noting that FanPulse voting started before the Cowboys’ loss to the Titans on Monday night, however, so their actual confidence number is probably even lower than indicated.Cowboys fans are expecting Dallas to lose by an average of three points in Philadelphia. Some Cowboys fans even want to see Dallas lose so that there’s a better chance Jerry Jones cleans house.NEW YORK GIANTSGiants fans are feeling much better after the bye! Their confidence rating went up by a whopping one percent.Giants fans are only expecting New York to lose by an average of two points to the San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football. 49ers fans, meanwhile, are expecting a win by an average of six points.Call me crazy but I think the Giants might actually win this game. I don’t think they’re going winless over the rest of the season. And who knows, maybe undrafted rookie free agent Nick Mullens looks terrible in his second start? Eagles fans should want to see the Giants win so that they screw up their positioning in the 2019 NFL Draft. Make it harder for them to get their top quarterback choice. ...Once again, sign up HERE to join FanPulse.

Longtime NFL defensive tackle Roy Miller said he did nothing wrong after being charged with child abuse Black Justin Blackmon Jerseys , and his lawyer said it was a byproduct of a messy divorce.Miller was released on his own recognizance yesterday, after being charged with a misdemeanor charge of child abuse with a personal or special weapon.Upon his release from jail after 14 hours, he told WJXT there was nothing to see.“Everybody’s fine,” Miller said. “I’m not guilty. . . . I have nothing else to say.”His attorney, Ashley Wells Cox, did.“Mr. Miller did not commit child abuse,” a statement read. “He has been involved in a difficult and contentious divorce. We are concerned that Mrs. Miller uses any opportunity to gain leverage in that case, and it is equally disappointing that a parent can be arrested for a felony for a bruise on the buttocks of someone’s own child.”Miller retired from the NFL after he was arrested on domestic violence charges in 2017, and was subsequently released by the Chiefs. He completed a pre-trial diversion program, his wife filed for divorce, and filed for a protective order. He accused her of ruining his career.Miller also played for the Buccaneers and Jaguars during a nine-year NFL career. Patrick Mahomes had finally thrown an interception, the first all season for the Chiefs’ talented young quarterback Justin Blackmon Jerseys 2019 , and the Jacksonville offense had shuffled back onto the field.The Chiefs immediately strip-sacked Blake Bortles to take the ball right back.Their beleaguered defense also picked off Bortles four times and sacked him five, and Chris Jones took one of those interceptions back for a touchdown, proving during a 30-14 romp over Jacksonville on a soggy Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium that the Chiefs are more than just an offensive dynamo.“It shows what kind of team we are,” said Mahomes, who finished with 313 yards passing and ran for a touchdown. “I’m just excited to come out with a win on a day the defense made plays.”Oh, the league’s highest-scoring offense still made plays.Kareem Hunt ran for 87 yards and a touchdown, and Travis Kelce hauled in five catches for 100 yards, helping the Chiefs (5-0) move the ball at will against the NFL’s top-rated defense.Tyreek Hill, who was frequently matched up with the Jaguars‘ Jalen Ramsey in an entertaining one-on-one affair, added four catches for 61 yards as the Chiefs rolled up 424 yards total.“That play calling was something I’ve never seen before,” said the Jaguars’ Tashaun Gipson, who picked off Mahomes before leaving with a groin injury. “Tip your hat to them. Obviously Black Taven Bryan Jerseys , the offensive personnel they’ve got 鈥?they came out here and they beat us.”The game eventually grew into a testy affair, resulting in a pair of ejections.Jones was booted in the second half after he dropped an elbow on a Jaguars lineman while both were on the ground following a point-after attempt. Then, pass rusher Dee Ford joined him in the locker room when he was whistled for his second unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.“You can’t let emotions get the best of you,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said.If anybody had reason to get frustrated it was Bortles, who was 33 of 61 for 430 yards with a touchdown and those four interceptions . Most of his yardage came in garbage time, and while he ran for a touchdown, he also was strip-sacked during Jacksonville’s miserable first half.Mahomes led the Chiefs 73 yards on their first possession, finishing the drive himself with a short scramble for a touchdown. Then he led the league’s high-powered offense 82 yards for a field goal a few minutes later, leaving Jacksonville’s vaunted D second-guessing itself.Meanwhile, the Jaguars’ offense was having all kinds of problems.Jacksonville (3-2) drove inside the Kansas City 5 early in the second quarter, but an incomplete fade on third down and another incompletion on fourth turned the ball over. Bortles was stripped on the first play of their next possession, and he threw the pick-6 to Jones on the first play of the next.The calamitous half ended when Bortles Taven Bryan Jerseys 2019 , trying to force a pass into the end zone, instead bounced it off his offensive lineman’s helmet and right to Steven Nelson for another interception.“It felt a lot like some games we’ve had in the past, just moved the ball, there were some good things done, we had some bad turnovers,” Bortles said. “You can’t turn the ball over.”In Bortles’ defense, his offensive line didn’t give him a whole lot of time. Along with the five sacks, the Chiefs were credited with 11 hurries, spending most of the game in his face.Bortles’ only real highlight came late in the game, when he escaped the collapsing pocket and angled toward the sideline, then lowered his shoulder to finish off a 21-yard touchdown run .The Jaguars recovered the onside kick, only for the Chiefs to force another turnover on downs.“They did a good job early in the game getting a lead. They did a good job early on third downs in the game. Offensively Black DJ Chark Jerseys , we didn’t execute,” Jaguars coach Doug Marrone said. “Again, we had a poor showing in the red zone, we had turnovers, and the game got out of hand. Got to play better. We’ve got to coach better, play better. We got to go back and get this team back on track.”RAMSEY VS HILLHill had nothing but praise for Ramsey after the game, though he did beat the Jaguars cornerback for one long gain. As for Ramsey? “I felt like I did pretty well. Really well, to be honest,” he said. “I won the majority of the matchups today, put it that way.”STATS AND STREAKSThe Chiefs’ first TD was the first allowed by Jacksonville on a team’s opening possession. … The Jaguars have not started 2-0 on the road since the 2007 season. … Jaguars RB T.J. Yeldon had 53 yards rushing. … Chiefs WR Sammy Watkins had six catches for 78 yards.INJURIESJaguars: RB Corey Grant (foot) and LT Josh Wells (groin) left in the first half. Ramsey left on the opening series after taking a knee to the helmet, but returned to play the rest of the game.Chiefs: OLBs Justin Houston (hamstring) and Tanoh Kpassagnon (ankle) and FSs Armani Watts (groin) and Eric Murray (lower leg) left the game in the first half. RG Laurent Duvernay-Tardif left in the final minutes with a fractured fibia in his left leg.UP NEXTJaguars: Visit the Cowboys next Sunday.Chiefs: Head to New England for a Sunday night showdown.

Last Thursday Prince Amukamara Jersey , we asked for fans from all over the web to give out some suggestions to an updated nickname for this 2018 squad on the Chicago Bears’ defense. Or, as many have suggested, simply declare a rebirth of the Monsters of the Midway. Depending on which perspective you may look, that historic name has stuck with the whole team since the 1940’s. If you’d like to scroll over the suggestions made last week http://www.thebearslockerroom.com/authenti...-shaheen-jersey , then here is a link to my first Fan Challenge article. Alas, now is the time to begin with the first round of voting! And, with the defense showing no signs of slowing down — knocks on wood — it marks for the best time to make this tough choice. This poll will last for exactly one calendar week, with the final pole to be released with the top three suggestions. Of course Womens Mitchell Trubisky Jersey , the people who suggested these nicknames will receive full credit for their suggestions, and be given a hearty shout out when the tallies are finalized. Now, may the voting commence!NFL Power Rankings: What did the second half failure do to the Bears’ ranking? The Chicago Bears looked like a Super Bowl contender for about an hour on Sunday Night Football. A crisp offense, a terrifying defense Pat O'Donnell Jersey , and a rival left reeling. But then, the wheels fell off. They didn’t fall off as bad as they did in Detroit, but Chicago’s second half against the Green Bay Packers is one we’d all like to forget. So how does the national power rankers view the Jekyll and Hyde Bears? Do they believe that first half performance was a precursor of things to come and the second half was just a young team getting swept up in the moment, or do they believe the first half was a fluke and the second half was the real Bears?SB Nation has the Bears down to 17 after being at 13 last week. I have to check in with SB Nation’s Mile High Report to see how they treat the Bears now that their Jilted-Lover-Syndrome with Jay Cutler is in the past. ESPN has the Bears up to 21 after being at 26 for the preseason. Here’s how the Sporting News has it.The USA Today has it like this. The Washington Post has it like this.Yahoo has a bunch of Bears’ thoughts in their power ranking article http://www.thebearslockerroom.com/authentic-kyle-long-jersey , but as for the actual ranking, it’s below. Some moved the Bears up after the loss, and some moved them down. How do you see their prospects heading into week 2?
